Break The Seal

It took months for me to reach out my hand
And escape the shell that held captive my inner man
Because I felt that giving up was the way to go
And I reneged on a God who loved me so
See, I held on tight to the seal that held in my oil
And in the process it robbed me of my faith and joy
I didn't feel like going on because the problems I faced
Had me in a dry, secluded and wilderness place
I was like the Daughter of Zion captive by her own chains
Feeling so hopeless that nothing could suppress the pain

The desert beat on my brow as I tried to get up
And reach out my hand to the One who offered me His cup
So with all my might I stood and I began to shout...
Praises to a God I had forgotten all about
I looked beside me and picked up what was there all along
It was my breakthrough, for when I broke it, the smell rose to God's throne
And I saw Him descending and He placed in my hands
Keys to take back what Satan stole from my land
So I went through the enemy's camp as bold as ever
And I laughed at him for thinking that he was so clever
And right in his midst I broke the seal of my praise
And I stayed there until he gave me back my joy and faith
I stood in his presence and I demanded my gifts back
My peace, strength and hope he had to unpack
Then right when I thought I had received everything
God came back down and awarded me more blessings
But Satan wasn't finished because he began to...
Tell God, "She's the Daughter who wanted to give up on You"
And I saw lightning and thunder flash as God said, "You're right"
But she didn't because she broke the seal that held her alabaster box tight

So no matter what problems and situations you're in
Trust in God because it's not over until you win
Offer up your praise and sing your song
Stand in His presence since that's where you belong
Though the winds are howling and the storm clouds roll
Remember, Jesus is the only true Lover of Your Soul
He cares about those small things that you have tucked away
And He's concerned about anything that's detrimental to your faith
So hide yourself in His arms and feel at ease and at rest
Then let Him rock away your pain, for your Heavenly Father knows best
He loves you dearly and no, you can't change that
So break the seal of your praise and then stay attached
For your perfume is sweet to Him and the aroma fills Him up
Now let Him bask in what you offered because your alabaster box was in His cup
